The Codex Ambrosianus refers to five manuscripts, c. 6th-11th century CE,[1] written by different hands and in different alphabets. The codices contain scattered passages from the Old Testament (Nehemiah) and the New Testament (including parts of the Gospels and the Epistles), as well as some commentaries known as Skeireins. It is therefore likely that the text had been somewhat modified by copyists.[citation needed]
